Should I be concerned when my download speed hits KBPS? (piefed.social)

So while I was trying to download Nintendo games through a source and through VPN. Things started well with one game that took 8 minutes to download at 11MBps. When downloading another game, it got to 93% and immediately started going to 200 ~ 500kbps and was going to take longer.

Has anyone dealt with this before and should it be a cause for concern? Anytime this has happened to me, I assume something or someone was on to me and immediately have to abort.

Yeah it's probably just the sites restricting you then.
